Hamamatsu has been a pioneer in the world of ultrafast science and technology, i.e. phenomena occurring faster than one billionth of a second. Streak cameras are an indispensable tool in the world of picoseconds and femtosecond phenomena, capturing information that no other instrument can provide. Hamamatsu Systems Division also offers dedicated streak camera systems for specific applications such as the C4780 – Fluorescence Lifetime Measurement System – as well as Picosecond Light Sources and Picosecond Photodetectors.
